He lectures to both patients and providers worldwide with a mission to EDUCATE, ENERGIZE and EMPOWER people impacted by MS.

27. Adapting Fashion for People with Disabilities with Ardra Shephard, Creator of Fashion Dis Dec 08, 2021

Clothing can truly make people feel confident, but how can the fashion industry better address the needs of disabled people?

In this week's episode, I will be joined by Ardra Shephard. Ardra is the influential Canadian blogger behind the award-winning Tripping On Air. She is a script consultant for the AMI television network, and her blog was the subject of a WebMD-produced documentary short.

With an international reach and reputation, Ardra is a leader in the MS community. She’s on a mission to change minds about what it means to live with a disability and to empower those with chronic illness to stake their place in the world.

In this week’s episode, we talk about How an MS diagnosis affected the fashion industry! How mobility aids as an accessory to embrace the disability? The importance of body positivity movement. How technology and social media assist people with disabilities? Tips for people who want to advocate for disabilities. What steps would people take to support other diseases?

Hack: You are just human, you don’t owe anyone anything.
